The Razer Taipan is a culmination of Razor’s history with ambidextrous gaming mice. This mosue has great ergonomics for an ambidextrous focus.

The jury is still out on the hard vs soft touch coating debate but the Razer Taipan offers an excellent mix of speed and accuracy in a body which is slim and light. Easy on the arm over long gaming sessions it best suits claw and fingertip grips.

One of the first things which struck us about the Taipan was that it looks a little different to many of Razers existing mice which was somewhat of a surprise. In fact in design ethic it actually looks closer to something like the Kone+. Upon placing...

The Razer Taipan strikes a perfect balance between form and function with a sleek exterior design and impressive internal features.

When I think ambidextrous, I think balance and I think Razer has hit that spot with the Taipan. It doesn’t excel in a single area, but it’s pretty damn good in all areas.

All in all, the Taipan is a solid, accurate gaming mouse that won’t break your bank account too hard. It will be available this July for an MSRP of $79.99.
